Session 1:写作标准解读
改革始末:在2015年9月,ACT对于写作部分做了一系列的变革。其中包括时间,话题范围,考试方式,评分标准和算分办法的改变。因为我们知道另外一个考试组织方Collegeboard对SAT也进行了变革,尤其是新SAT写作部分,直接变成了分析性写作,直接考查学生的阅读,分析和写作的综合能力,弱化了考试备考的技巧性和投机成分。迫于竞争对手的考试变革压力,ACT也相应地对其写作部分做了较大的变动。我们先具体看看其变化的细节:新旧ACT写作对比
1. 考试时间
改革前:总时间长度为30分钟,文章体裁要求为议论文
改革后:总时间长度为40分钟,文章体裁要求为剖析性议论文
2. 话题范围
改革前:基本集中于考查教育类话题
改革后:考查更普遍多样的社会话题
3. 考题方式
改革前:试题提供正反两方观念供参考,需考生独立表达观点,可与题干观点不一致。
改革后:试题提供三方观点,须对所给观点分别进行剖析,基本属于较复杂问题,必须与题干观点结合讨论。
4. 评分标准
改革前:主要从考生文章谈论的复杂度、观点展开、文章组织及语言表达进行评分。
改革后:四个范畴评价:观点和分析(Ideas and Analysis),文章观点展开与论证支持(Development and Support),文章组织(Organization),语言应用和语法(Language Use and Conventions)
5. 算分办法
改革前:两位阅卷人评分,分别依照1-6分评价,加和汇总。例如两位阅卷人的分数分别是:6分,5分,考生最后的得分为11分。
改革后:两位阅卷人评分,每人在四个范畴内依照1-6分评价,最后每个范畴加和汇总,即每个范畴得分区间2-12分。例如两位阅卷人分数分别是:3-3-3-3,3-3-3-3,最后得分为6-6-6-6。另外,除了每个范畴的得分外,考生还会取得一个最终换算的1-36分范围内的写作总分。

Scoring Rubric - Overview
This analytic scoring rubric presents the standards by which your essay will be evaluated. The following rubric overview will help you to better understand the dimensions of writing that this assessment evaluates.
This task asks you to generate an argument that establishes a perspective on a given issue and brings it into dialogue with other perspectives. In evaluating your response, trained readers will use an analytic rubric that breaks the central elements of written argument into four domains: Ideas and Analysis, Development and Support, Organization, and Language Use and Conventions. As you review these domains, think about the role each plays in a written argument that accomplishes its purpose.
Ideas and Analysis: Scores in this domain reflect the ability to generate productive ideas and engage critically with multiple perspectives on the given issue. Competent writers understand the issue they are invited to address, the purpose for writing, and the audience. They generate ideas that are relevant to the situation.
Development and Support: Scores in this domain reflect the ability to discuss ideas, offer rationale, and bolster an argument. Competent writers explain and explore their ideas, discuss implications, and illustrate through examples. They help the reader understand their thinking about the issue.
Organization: Scores in this domain reflect the ability to organize ideas with clarity and purpose. Organizational choices are integral to effective writing. Competent writers arrange their essay in a way that clearly shows the relationship between ideas, and they guide the reader through their discussion.
Language Use and Conventions: Scores in this domain reflect the ability to use written language to convey arguments with clarity. Competent writers make use of the conventions of grammar, syntax, word usage, and mechanics. They are also aware of their audience and adjust the style and tone of their writing to communicate effectively.
